inadvertently began making provision for Brexit, 5 years before the referendum.
We looked at our export business and decided it had too much emphasis on
Europe. We decided to spread our search for new retail partners into new areas
such as the USA, South America, Canada, Eastern Europe and Africa. In all these
areas we have had significant successes."

their products to 72 countries worldwide and are continuing to seek word wide
retail opportunities. As a member of The Made in Britain Campaign, What More UK

is business and politics are politics.No matter which Brexit is decided, trade
will continue, British products are recognised all over the world as quality.
The right products of the right quality at the right price, backed up with the
right service will always be accepted.

Whatever
politicians decide or don't decide. It is a big world out there and our quality
Wham products are ready, willing and able to fill the shelves of any retailer,
no matter where in the world they are."

conduct business, with their straight up attitude and flair for developing new
innovative products. We have seen this company grow and develop into a
worldwide recognised brand with quality product. Made in England is a very
strong selling point for us in New Zealand and our major retailer Briscoes has
grasped this, the What More UK range had grown to be a category winner. Through
the years we have experienced turbulent times with currency fluctuations, raw
material costs, more recently Brexit uncertainty and shipping costs ,
however What More sales have still been maintained."
